I used my wildcard thing on the fantasy league this week, as I thought loads of my team would be rested etc.

Without exception, every time I chose player A over player B, player B has scored.

I came so close to putting in Shaquiri, Damsgaard, Maehle and Wijnaldum who've scored 6 so far this week.

Oh and I took out Lukaku as I thought they'd rest him.

Add Forsberg to that, saw Jorginho was still playing Monday, they both take pens but Jorginho was cheaper....

Come to the conclusion I really dislike watching games in Seville. That’s not even a football stadium is it?

It's terrible, games were supposed to be held in Bilbao, what was the reason for switching? I get venues have had to be moved for COVID but moving a venue within a country seems odd.

Two more chances missed by Spain.

Covered End

That's cheered up the Scottish goalie.

What a mistake...

Massive error by the keeper, that’s a shocker

That's what happens when keepers are no longer taught to catch the bloody thing

There are two much better football stadiums in the city, but they’ve got this white elephant so they have to use it.

Shame because San Mames is a quality stadium - went there a couple years ago for a game - loved it

What on earth was that? Got to be something dodgy going on there. Wow

Hero to Zero in minutes after saving the penalty for the Newcastle keeper.

Own Goals odds on for golden boot;
Is that 6?

It looks like he has done that on purpose.

Looks like he went with the wrong hand.

Let’s just say I get a £5 free bet if Spain win and leave it there, shall we.

So will be Croatia v Spain as things stand?

England were damned with a draw or win last night really

Slovakia are out as things stand according to the BBC - Ukraine will be ahead in the third place rankings courtesy of having scored more goals

Yes - exactly. Spain v Croatia in Copenhagen as it stands.

Sweden, as Group E winners, would face Ukraine or the Czechs (or far less likely, Finland) in Glasgow. Then a potential quarter final against England or Group F runners up.

Yes, as it stands Finland are out and Slovakia would join them unless France beat Portugal by four goals.

I'd fancy England to beat Spain. 
France/Germany I'm nervous about if honest. Not just on form, but history.
Anyway England have been in 2nd gear so far😉

What do Finland need to get through?

Apart from a miracle

Sounds like if we can get beyond the R16, the QF becomes a winnable game as per your post above about who we'd face

Think that's the game done and dusted in Seville.

Slovakia now in real danger of heading out. Only above Finland on goals scored. Either way it looks like that it'll be Finland and Slovakia that miss out and Ukraine squeak through.

This keeper is having a right old Reginald blinker.
